Croatian Basketball Player Goes Nuts, Punches Ref (Video)

Life is different in the former eastern bloc. Take this video for example. In Croatia, it’s apparently common to punch a ref when you don’t like a ruling. We’re kidding, of course. Supposedly, this player was banned for life from basketball, and probably forced to return to life as a fishmonger and machinist at the local mercury plant. Still, we can’t help but wonder how this doesn’t happen more often in the NBA. Probably the zillion dollar contracts. We can’t be sure, but that’s our best guess.
